Clicking on a text box

Mark Schwag

Hello Mahesh,

I know you are very experienced in C # . I have one problem. It is very difficult to understand that you can't click on text in text box and with that click open new text box without clicking on a button! For example I have one textbox ona a form and in it a simple text, later I want to click on that text ina text box and automatically to open new text box next to it or somewhere on the form. Is it possible and do you know how to do that? Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,

Marko

You can achive it by onChange Method of textbox,
when onChange check if the textbox is not empty. Now if its not empty, on first textbox onChange, create a new texbox and assign the ID of it with int parameter and down to it keep incrementing it for next textbox ID.

Hi,

we have onfocus event in textbox.

SetTextInTextBox2() - In this Function, you can write to create new textbox.
